3.864 vs 3.619

[Domsz06]

Ok, well I just got a V1 from someone and let me tell you, wow so much different then my older one.

Few questions.

1) What doe J mean?

2) The 3.864 goes off like crazy, I mean it's always running and picking up x and k, do you guys tune these out or what? I mean i drive 15 miles to work and it never shut up.

3) I ran both models side by side and the .619 doesn't go off nearly as bad, that being said the 3.864 did pick up a Ka 10 seconds sooner then the 3.619 and it was a cop. So was glad it did that.

Anyone have any suggestions? I think this has been talked about before, but not sure where the thread is. I live in Houston if it matters...

Thanks experts!

J means junk, probably from a cheap radar. You can tune out k and x band through the settings. Make sure your area doesn't still use any of the bands before you tune them out. You could try Big L mode it will determine if the x and k is a threat before it alerts I think. Just go to v1 site to see how to program your v1. Hope that helps.

Until you know what's used in your area, make sure all bands are turned on. Has the 3.619 been sent to VR to make sure it's working properly?

[Domsz06]

sending in the 3.619 in a few days. It has saved me many times, but now compared to the new one it's no comparison.

I'm not sure if x or k are used in this area. I do know that when I ran it in L or little L it didn't matter, it was counting things like crazy, normally running between 7 and 9....

I'm not sure if x or k are used in this area.

In Houston, X band is almost non-existent. K band on the other hand is almost used as much as Ka band so DO NOT turn off K band. I recommend running the V1 in little l mode. Also, turn POP off. That will reduce the number of J-outs.

BTW do you have a laser jammer system?

[Domsz06]

Thanks Snoopy.

I think I'll turn off X. and turn off pop then. I don't get a lot of J's but do get some.

I dont' have a laser jammer yet. Going to get an LI, but need to put some more money into my house before I drop the money on the jammer.

I ran it in Big L the last two days and that helps. What I don't get is when I leave my neighborhood I get 3-4 bogy's. There are zero doors or anything around. What in the world is it picking up?

[snoopyc4]

Is the entrance to your neighborhood gated?

[Domsz06]

No,

But i was reading on the site about drones and how garage transmitors transmit in x.... so maybe that's it.

How do you find out what's being used in your area?
